Express Yourself -Vote Tuesday


If Women Vote, Washington Will Listen
We can’t afford to sit this one out — make sure to vote tomorrow.

You’ve heard it before, but it’s worth saying it again: women’s votes change the face of government.

Pollsters and pundits are claiming that many women may sit this election out. But when women don’t vote, we all lose. Learn where your polling location is and make sure to vote tomorrow.

Your vote is your way of expressing what’s important to you. A host of important priorities for women are at stake in this election. For instance, your vote can say:

  • We took a major step toward meeting women’s health needs by passing a new health care law — being a woman is no longer a pre-existing condition. Let’s keep it that way.
  • Helping women and their families through hard times, expanding opportunity, and strengthening the economy are important to me. I need our leaders to support a strong safety net and a fair tax system that provides the resources needed for those investments.
  • I want Congress to make equal pay a priority and fight to make sure that women and their families won’t have to make do with 77 cents for every dollar earned by a man.

The midterm elections will make a profound difference on whether women and families will get the help they need to make ends meet in these difficult times. Women’s votes matter now more than ever. That’s why none of us can afford for women to sit this election out.

Express yourself — make sure to vote tomorrow.

Sincerely,

Emily Martin Emily Martin
